Some began to suggest they go out naked to kill zombies for a night.
Others proposed they be confined to the "Xiaoyao House" for a week, with no gender restrictions.
Some had even more perverse ideas, suggesting the three of them perform together.
Feng Zi heard this and her face turned pale with fright; three men together would be too much!
Two had tried it, three was truly impossible!
Someone raised an objection, stating that the three men would be the ones enjoying themselves.
Someone else started offering new suggestions.
"How about having sex with zombies?"
"That's a good idea, but what about the women?"
"Let the men do it with the zombies first, then with the woman, wouldn't that work?"
"Right."
In the end, the host actually adopted their suggestions.
Li Ping showed no reaction, even giving her a flirtatious wink.
He had said earlier to come over quietly tonight.
Xu Qian was speechless; why was he looking for her? Was it purely for conversation?
She needed to increase his friendship level, not his affection level.
The host began to order people to go out and capture three female zombies, while some of the men, eager to watch the show, volunteered to capture them.
Some who couldn't bear it began to leave one by one, but most people remained in the area.
Mei Yue Bai leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Why don't we leave too?"
He had endured the cruel and disgusting activity for long enough. Now that humans and zombies were involved, he truly couldn't stay.
Xu Qian nodded; she had no interest in humans and zombies either.
She stood up to leave, but Li Ping grabbed her wrist, then quickly let go.
He mouthed the words.
"Remember tonight."
"..."
She hadn't agreed to anything.
As for how intense the subsequent human-zombie encounters were, they had no idea. In the dormitory, they only heard the roars of zombies and the women's miserable screams for a long time.
Xu Qian sighed; other bases' internal affairs were not for people from Hope Base to manage. Pity was irrelevant; this was not a society governed by law.
Strength was the ultimate winner.
The three of them washed up and went to bed.
The beds were stacked, and they were very small, so they didn't sleep together.
Xu Qian took the upper bunk, and Mei Yue Bai took the lower.
Zhong Yang, sensing the situation, took the spot closest to the door.
Deep in the night.
"Drip, drip, drip."
Light footsteps approached.
Xu Qian opened her eyes, as if she had never been asleep.
Li Ping, wearing black silk pajamas, walked in leisurely. The other two men showed no signs of waking.
She sat up and narrowed her eyes; he had entered so ostentatiously, they should have reacted.
"What did you do to them?"
"Don't worry, nothing much. Just letting them have a sweet dream."
Li Ping walked to Xu Qian's bunk. He was tall, his shoulders level with the upper bunk. He reached out with a long arm and lifted her directly from the bunk.
Their body sizes were vastly different, and she nestled in his arms like a kitten.
Li Ping's heart skipped a beat; this woman was so soft and comfortable to hold.
Xu Qian's expression turned cold, "Put me down."
"No."
Xu Qian pushed off with her toes, jumping directly from Li Ping's grasp and landing steadily.
After confirming that the two men were indeed asleep, she asked, "What is it?"
"Let's talk outside."
He didn't want to be lovey-dovey in front of two men, even if they were asleep.
The two of them went downstairs and strolled through the vast industrial district, in silence.
The industrial district was as quiet as it had been in the morning.
Li Ping was trying to think of a sufficiently subtle way to confess; with his good looks, it shouldn't be a problem.
Meanwhile, Xu Qian was pondering what this base relied on for survival.
Was it solely dependent on a leader with over a dozen special abilities?
